Lack of Correlation Between Urinary Iodine and Dietary Iodine in Goitrous Children

The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 1965
Because of difficulties of direct measurement of dietary iodine intake during the course of endemic goiter studies, investigators have used urinary iodine excretion as an index of dietary iodine intake. In those studies, the urinary excretion of iodine has been either (a) measured directly by determining the iodine content of 24-hour urine collections,

Urinary Excretion of Iodine in Norway

1993
Before World War II, there existed in Norway areas of endemic goiter. One of the areas, Modum, was thoroughly investigated in 1934 (1). All school children in the community were examined, and urinary iodine excretion was determined in 26 adults by means of a cumbersome chemical method: ashing of urine made strongly alkaline, extraction with chloroform,

Single dose povidone-iodine on thyroid functions and urinary iodine excretion

The Indian Journal of Pediatrics, 2003
The effect of single dose povidone-iodine on serum thyrotropin and thyroxine levels and urinary iodine excretion in 30 preterm, 40 full-term newborns and 50 infants at Dr. Sami Ulus Children's Hospital was studied. There was no significant change of thyroid function in any of the groups (p>0.05). Urinary iodine excretion in preterm and full-term groups

The Effect of Preoperative Surgical Scrubbing with Povidone Iodine on Urinary Iodine Levels

Australian and New Zealand Journal of Surgery, 1972
Iodophors are used widely in industry, medicine and the home, because iodine released from them is germicidal without being irritant. Povidone iodine is used as a skin disinfectant in the operating theatres at the Royal Hobart Hospital. Estimation of the output of urinary iodine in surgeons and sisters after their use of this material shows an increase.

Iodine deficiency disorders in Kapenguria: a urinary iodine estimation.

East African medical journal, 1994
Iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) are known to be a potential problem for billions of people living in the highland areas of Africa and Asia. One method of determining the severity of IDD in a region is to determine the iodine content of the urine of school aged children.

Urinary selenium and iodine during pregnancy and lactation

Journal of Trace Elements in Medicine and Biology, 2001
The New Zealand environment is low in selenium and iodine, and is therefore ideally suited for the study of these anionic trace elements. The aim of this study was to determine urinary excretion of selenium and iodine during pregnancy and postpartum as part of an investigation of the influence of pregnancy and lactation on selenium metabolism in women ...

[Urinary iodine excretion in Austria and the effect of iodine balneotherapy].

Wiener klinische Wochenschrift, 1987
Urinary iodine excretion was examined in 645 patients at Bad Hall, both before and after undergoing iodine balneotherapy. The results indicate that in spite of iodized salt prophylaxis there is still an insufficiency of iodine supply in Austria. No essential differences were detected between individual regions of Austria.

Influence of Radioiodine Therapy on Urinary Iodine Excretion

Nuklearmedizin, 1998
Summary Aim: In 214 patients with benign thyroid diseases the time-course of urinary iodine excretion (UIE) was investigated in order to identify changes after radioiodine therapy (RITh). Method: UIE was measured photometrically (cerium-arsenite method) and related to urinary creatinine on the first and last day of the radioiodine test and ...
